NEWS FROM THE ISLAND FAILS TO
ILLUSTRATE HER.


Abroad.-Colonel Boyd Gives His Version
Of the Alleged Rebellion in the King
dom-The Queens Future Program.
NEW York, July 13.-Queen Kapiolani,
and her company, consisting of Princess
Liliuokolani, Cen Dominis her husband,
Cen C. j. Iaukae and Col J. H. Boyd, re-
turned yesterday from England, where they
took in the jubilee, hoated loan of $1,000
900, and had good time generally. If the
news Of the Hawaiian revolution depressed
their spirits they didn't let anybody suspect
the fact. Everybody was apparently in the
best of humor. .,
AS her majesty swept into the Victoria she
bowed graciously to those gathered to meet
her, and throughout the day her face was all
smiles, As one OF the party said: ''These
little offairs occur so often on the island that
they are hardly noticed. However, we
don't know what has been done this time ex-
cept from your paper.n The revenue cutter
Grant, under orders from the state depart
ment at Washington, was anchored down
the bay Sunday night awaiting the arrival
of the Servia so as to take of the royal
party when the steamer arrived. On board
the cutter were H. A. p. Carter, the
Hawaiian minister; Consul General Allen,
and A s. Brown, chief clerk of the state
department, who had been deputed by the
authorities at Washington to welcome her
majesty They came to quarantine bright
and early. The royal party was taken of
and the Servia had fired a royal salute The
Grant steamed up the river to Twenty sixth
street. Here the Minnesota fired another
salute and the royal party disembarked.
Carriages were in waiting and took the
party to the Victoria house.
The queen entered on the arm of Mr. Car
ter and the princess on that Of her husband.
Both ladies were dressed quietly in b ack
cloth dresses, trimmed with jet, and looked
very much the same as when they left.
There were no traces of any trouble in either
of their faces and they bowed and smiled
right and left as they recognized familiar
countenances. Their apartments were those
which they had occupied ON their previous
visit They were followed by a mass of
baggage, all very English. New trunks,
rugs and hat boxes were in great profusion.
Everybody was awfully hungry, so Mr.. Car
ter was the only one who could be seen for
the moment. He said her majesty was in
Hawaiian Islands. It was simply a change
Of ministry which W luld affect him in no
way whatever as minister. These petitions
were not Of partisan appointment, and,
moreover, the new government really be-
longed to the party Of which he is men,
Der, and its premier, Mr.. Green, Is an old
friend and ally.
After luncheon reporter called upon the
royal party. Referring to her trip abroad
the queen said she really had enjoyed every
minute Of the time; the jubilee was glorious.
We went every where. 1t was ball here, a
garden party there and a never ending
round Of amusement everywhere. OF the
members Of the royal family the queen most
fancied the Princess of Wales She was the
most democratic and took more pains to
please and to show the visitors little atten-
tions The Prince of Wales was also a great
favorite. When the conversation turned to
politics the reporter was referred to Col.
Boyd. LET me tell you,n he began, that
none of us know much about what has hap
pened at home. All we know is what is in
the papers, and all that seems to emanate
from one source We have done what we
started to do, and now we will wait to hear
from home. can say very little. l don't
think there has been any revolution. If it
was w. p Castle would not be in San Fran
cisco. He has too large interests at stake to
leave the country in troublesome times. Be-
sides he is a member of the party reported
now in power"
"Who is the new premierP
"He is w. L. Green, who was premier
OF the present kings first cabinet He was
ousted in just such a row when Gibson came
in He is a lawyer-oflce hours II to IL

money for English and Irish capitalists.
The balance of the cabinet are all young
men who have not been long ON the island.
1 don't believe the published list can be cor
rect, as these men would hardly get the po-
sitions from the Missionary party
"What is the Missionary partyp
'It Is composed mostly Of the descendants
of the first missionaries, who found trading
more profitable than preaching. Still they
hang by Scripture reading good deal in
this wise Two Of them will be together at
a native meeting. One while reading says
to the other, Say, old boy. I've 1900 feet

Suddenly he leans over and says, Can't
sell for that. Think it over again and give
me an answer when l finish the chapter.
There you have it. hate the Missionary
party. You see there are not many voters
on the islands. Only property owners and
those who read and write can vote. The
crowd who seem to have kicked up this row
are not voters. The Honolulu Rifles you
hear about are about one hundred young
men and not one of thsm is votern
'Who is Gibson, the deposed premierl"
"He is an American and a very smart
man. During the late war he was captain
Of a privateer. Then he was Norman.
Finally he drifted to Honolulu and went
into the country to raise sheep. He was
head and shoulders intellectually above all
the people round him. Then he came to the
Legislature He was fine orator and could
make you believe black was white. He
rapidly rose, and in his rise broke UP a half
dozen cabinets The king made him pre-
mier, and all the country owns is due to
him. He encouraged Immigration and
helped in every way to build up the coun-
try. In doing this he incurred the enmity

still think the published accounts of the
trouble are very much exaggerated. am
las much in the dark as you 1t will be some
days before we know all about It,"
No definite plans have been decided upon
regarding the progress of the royal party.
They may leave the city to-day and maybe
not until Thursday. Even then they may
be some time in getting home, as they want
to visit Niagara Falls, Philadelphia and Chi
cago before they 60 to San Francisco. Com
